Subject: [GIT PULL] overlayfs update for 6.16
Date: Thu, 5 Jun 2025 16:51:15 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <CAJfpegvB3At5Mm54eDuNVspuNtkhoJwPH+HcOCWm7j-CSQ1jbw@mail.gmail.com> (raw)
Hi Linus,
Please pull from:
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/overlayfs/vfs.git
tags/ovl-update-6.16
- Fix a regression in getting the path of an open file (e.g. in
/proc/PID/maps) for a nested overlayfs setup (André Almeida)
- The above fix contains a cast to non-const, which is not actually
needed. So add the necessary helpers postfixed with _c that allow the
cast to be removed (touches vfs files but only in trivial ways)
- Support data-only layers and verity in a user namespace
(unprivileged composefs use case)
- Fix a gcc warning (Kees)
- Cleanups
Thanks,
Miklos
